Chapter 1024 Weird People

"Taozi, this country in North Africa also has a lot of oil resources and earns tens of billions of dollars in revenue every year. Why didn't you try to sell them warships?" Wu Shengli asked curiously on the return plane.

“Didn’t Zhengyang say that? The colonel is a psychopath, so we didn’t plan to go to a psychopath to sell him at the beginning, and we were already too busy at the time.”

Now Qin Tao has agreed, just because with the commissioning of the third factory, production capacity has been freed up on his own side. Otherwise, Qin Tao would not be interested in the colonel.

"Mental illness?" Wu Shengli smiled: "Yes, in 1970, the colonel once sent someone to visit our country. Just like this time, it was also a surprise visit. The purpose of his visit was also very simple, just to come Buy mushroom bombs.”

If it was just to buy mushroom bombs and throw them at the evil intruders to help their brothers in distress, forget it. The key is that the colonel also knew that the East would not easily sell mushroom bombs, so he took it for granted and mentioned A condition with a threatening purpose came out. The consequences can be imagined. The people sent by the colonel were not received at all and were directly driven away.

"He has done a lot of things that he takes for granted. It is not easy to offend all the five gangsters. He can accomplish such great achievements." Qin Tao also expressed emotion: "In 1978, he didn't know that suddenly I thought of something and wanted to go to Moscow to talk to Lao Maozi. I didn't even say hello and took a plane to the Red Empire. As a result, I was intercepted by the Homeland Defense Air Force and almost shot down."

“It would have been nice if we had defeated it at that time.” Wu Shengli said with a smile: “What’s next?”

"Next, Lao Maozi asked the diplomats and found out that the colonel was sitting on the plane and he was going to meet with Lao Maozi's old leader." Qin Tao continued: "When the plane arrived in Moscow, the colonel didn't even come out of the cabin door and shouted outside I asked, is my brother here?"

Qin Tao talked about this matter vividly.

"Lao Maozi said that it was too late and we would meet again tomorrow, so the colonel became unhappy and closed the cabin door directly, leaving the officials below to stand in the cold wind for two hours. Lao Maozi saw that this was not a problem. Ah, so they brought a few boxes of mineral water, saying it could cure diseases. The mineral water was brought onto the plane, but the door was closed again. In their surprised eyes, the plane actually flew away!"

This story was seen by Qin Tao later. I don’t know if it is a fabrication or a real occurrence. In short, these things can show that there are big problems with the colonel’s character. In the era of the Red Empire, he often created surprises for Lao Maozi.

I miss my old friend in Moscow. I flew there without even saying hello. After I passed, my old friend said it was too late and I would see you the next day, so I took the plane back!

"Hearing what you said, I really want to go down and have a look." Wu Shengli said.

“Dad, don’t go, I’ll just go and take a look.” As Qin Tao was talking, the cabin door in front opened and the co-pilot came out.

“Mr. Qin, we just received news from the ground that the customer doesn’t want to stay in the capital to see the scenery, and has been clamoring to go to Mingzhou Shipyard. Our reception staff didn’t pay attention, and the customer has disappeared without a trace!”

“Coordinate with the ground to change the route and fly directly to Mingzhou.” Qin Tao said.

Because she knew that the customer was unreliable, Zhao Ling personally accompanied the customer to the capital after they got off the plane. She only planned to explain to the customer in the capital. Unexpectedly, the customer was not satisfied.

 When customers come to Dongfang, they want to visit the shipyard. Since Mingzhou Group does not agree, then the customers will go by themselves!

Wu Shengli also shook his head helplessly. He really couldn't meet such a person. God knows what such a person would say. He was afraid that he would be angry and unable to control himself and hit him.

 “What is this person’s attitude?” Wu Shengli continued to ask.

"This person has no tendency. He is like a mad dog. He will bite anyone he catches. He will also wag his tail to cater to certain people. He is a complete loser." Xu Zhengyang introduced at the side: "During the previous Cold War, this person People are inclined to the Red Empire, although they often make fun of the Red Empire. But when the Red Empire collapsed, he immediately went to kneel and lick the Americans, and even showed his love to Rice in public. In order to cater to the Americans, he even published some Words that are detrimental to us.”

“Then we will sell the warship to him?” Wu Shengli frowned.

"This guy is a weirdo on the surface, but he is ambitious. He is trying to form an alliance composed of many countries. He is rich and ambitious, just like the big dog. Now seeing the success of the big dog, he I also want to copy it." Qin Tao said: "So, if you come to us to buy a warship, you should be sincere. Let's collect the money first. Anyway, the money that falls into our pockets will not be refunded."

Hearing what Qin Tao said, Wu Shengli had a complicated expression: "In other words, we are going to cheat them? Since this guy is a psychopath, he might cause trouble for your Mingzhou Group everywhere in the future."

"This is not easy." Qin Tao said: "Let's let him wait until then to see the emperor!"

Wu Shengli didn't say anything, but felt a chill in his heart. His son-in-law was definitely not a good person. However, leading a large enterprise like Mingzhou Group to rise in the world was not something that ordinary people could do. , Qin Tao naturally has his reasons for doing this.

 Mingzhou Shipyard.

A fat man stood at the door of the shipyard. The flesh on his face was drooped and baggy. He wore a yellow turban on his head, but it did not cover all his hair. The curly hair was exposed wantonly. He has a very artistic demeanor, and coupled with the full beard, it is easier for people to think of him as a down-and-out artist.

However, there were still many people standing behind him, half of whom were women. They stood upright and looked like they had been trained. Such a group of people actually seemed somewhat imposing.

 An interpreter walked up and shouted to the person in the concierge: "Open the door quickly! The colonel is here to inspect!"

The concierge's head was full of questions: "I'm sorry, we didn't receive the reception order. This is a military area, so you should go back."

 Although the shipyard is privately owned, most of the ships built in the shipyard are warships. There are not only military representatives stationed at the shipyard, but also patrols by the Marine Corps. No one can get close to them.

Look at the man outside. He seems to be a big shot, but also seems to be a madman. Of course the man in the concierge will not open the door.

“You are so presumptuous, can’t you figure it out? Is the colonel a foreigner? His identity will scare you to death. Open the door quickly!”

"Foreigners? Half of our shipyards are foreigners." The concierge said: "You can't come to visit without an invitation. This is the rule of the shipyard. If you dare to break in forcefully, I will take the guards away." I shouted over here and kicked you out!"

"You dare!" said the translator: "If you dare to do that, your Mingzhou Shipyard will be discredited internationally! No foreign customer dares to come! The colonel came here intending to order a dozen warships! "

"I don't dare?" the concierge said, picking up the phone and dialing a number: "Hey, are you the Marines? This is the concierge. We have encountered a group of lunatics here..."

Before he could finish his words, a Golden Sun electric car sped over and stopped outside these people with a sharp braking sound. A man got out of the car in a hurry and said as he walked: "Don't notify me." Army, let them in."

"Assistant Zhao?" The concierge looked at Zhao Ling in surprise. After a moment's hesitation, he realized what he was doing and quickly pressed the button, causing the automatic door to slowly open.

"Mr. Colonel, I'm very sorry. We didn't receive a notice here and didn't know it was you who came." Zhao Ling said, "The staff from the foreign affairs department will arrive later. I will take you to the guest house to check in. There is a dedicated staff there." Please stay in the presidential suite first and wait until tomorrow to visit."

However, the colonel obviously did not hear what Zhao Ling said. Even if Zhao Ling spoke fluent Arabic, the other party was not moved at all. On the contrary, when he saw the door opening and revealing the slipway inside, the colonel suddenly burst into laughter. excited.

"Follow me!" the colonel said, and suddenly jumped out. Judging from his age, he should be in his fifties or sixties. Now he runs like a nimble monkey, and he is not afraid of running too fast. waist.

 Everyone behind him was thrown away, not to mention Zhao Ling who was left behind.

If you look down at the shipyard from the sky, you can see a yellow robe flying, like a lion on the grassland, swooping straight to the shipyard!

Did this guy have a sudden idea? Of course not, he must have investigated the layout of the shipyard, and he also knew that what was currently being built in the shipyard was the most advanced 100,000-ton aircraft carrier!

The 002 aircraft carrier has been put into service, and the 003 aircraft carrier has started construction, and the progress is rapid. After the second and third segments are docked and welded, the first half of the entire aircraft carrier has begun to take shape. It can be seen clearly from satellite images. Many military experts have also begun to analyze, and the analyzed structures are almost the same. This must be a super aircraft carrier with a displacement of about 100,000 tons, the same as the most advanced aircraft carrier in the United States!

 Dongfang's progress in aircraft carrier technology is extremely impressive.

The colonel suddenly ran to the dock, of course to see the aircraft carrier in the dock!

Just as he was running towards the dock, two guards patrolling the dock spotted him. The way he was dressed showed that he was not a shipbuilder at the shipyard. Besides, even shipwrights have their own division of labor. Build what you build, and don't run back and forth.

 The guards ran over, shouting as they ran: "Who is it? Don't come close. If you come closer to us, we will..."

 Colonel won’t listen, how dare you? When the Red Empire was at its most powerful, I suddenly broke into the Red Empire's airspace on a passenger plane. They didn't dare to hit me. You...

 Ouch! Suddenly, the colonel screamed, and one of the guards stretched out his leg, tripping the colonel down. The colonel was caught off guard and fell to the ground immediately!

 Another guard came up and planned to twist the colonel's arms from behind to control him.

“Don’t be rude!” Zhao Jiao was running out of breath from behind. She could still get past him if she only stumbled, but if she beat the colonel till his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, it would be difficult to explain.

The two guards were stunned for a moment, Assistant Zhao? What is this person's identity?

At the moment when the two of them were stunned, the colonel got up, squeaked, and jumped forward again, heading straight for the dock!

Zhao Ling was out of breath from running. She never thought that she would be competing with others in the open space of the shipyard, but the end was right in front of her!

The colonel ran to the dock and stood there, panting, but with a proud look on his face. He glanced at the people following him with proud eyes, and then looked down.

 No, why is this dock so small? What is being built inside is not an aircraft carrier, but a warship under repair. Looking at this rough appearance, it shows the style of an old Maozi warship!

The direction in which the colonel started running was correct. However, after tripping, he got up and ran in the wrong direction. He ran to the dock where Da Mao was repairing warships. What he saw now was a warship of Da Mao's navy!

At this time, Zhao Ling also ran up.

"Mr. Colonel, you are not allowed to run around in the shipyard. It is very dangerous here and may even endanger your life. For your safety, please obey our instructions."

“I want to see the aircraft carrier.” The colonel couldn’t run anymore and panted and said to Zhao Ling: “I want to see your most advanced aircraft carrier! A 100,000-ton aircraft carrier!”

“Then wait a moment, we need to report to our superiors, and only after getting permission can you see our aircraft carrier.”

 “Am I not qualified yet? I am...”

"The navy's death order, go and see it without permission. The people guarding there can shoot at any time. Look, are there people with guns on the turret over there?"

 Zhao Ling pointed upward.

 The colonel puffed up his chest: "Do you dare to shoot me? Come on, come here!"

This guy, isn’t he a lunatic? After tripping this guy, the two men who followed him and ran all the way looked at the colonel's performance curiously. Who said he was going to shoot you?

Colonel said as he walked towards the dock over there.

Zhao Ling was helpless and quickly picked up the phone to make a call.

 Fortunately, the superior agreed before the guy reached the restricted area.

There is no secret in the open-air construction process. After all, the satellites in the sky can be seen every day. There are secrets only during the outfitting, but at that time, the operations are done inside and no one else can see it.

 The aircraft carrier currently being built is just an iron lump.

 The colonel finally reached the top of the dock and looked down at the outline of the huge warship below, his eyes full of excitement and admiration.

 After a while, he turned to look at Zhao Ling: "How much does this aircraft carrier cost? We want it!"

 You want it?

Zhao Ling was confused. No normal person would say such a thing!

All the ships being built in the shipyard are owned by their owners and have a construction period limit. No one else can buy them no matter how much money they spend. Besides, this aircraft carrier was built for the motherland navy, and this guy in front of me actually wants to buy it?

 What a joke!

"Hmph, you have a 40,000-ton aircraft carrier, and you think you can command the world? We want to have a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier, and this is the one I'm attracted to!" The colonel continued: "You guys make a price! That's right! Yes, do you have a large paint pen?"

 “What do you want the paint pen for?”

"Change the hull number." The colonel said, "I have decided to name this warship after our country, and the hull number will be 001. I want to brush up the hull number quickly so that it will look more comfortable."

Babic came up and greeted Zhao Ling and the guests. Fortunately, he didn't understand the guests' Arabic, and no one translated for him. Otherwise, he would probably have picked up a broom and chased them away. What did he say? How did such a weirdo come here?

"No." Zhao Ling refused directly: "Besides, this warship will not be sold to you."

"Why not? Aren't you short of money? Just sell it to me, and the price will be whatever you want!"

 At this time, the colonel was still immersed in the world of rich people. As long as he had money, he could do whatever he wanted.

“Are you sure you want this warship?” Zhao Ling was also angry.

 “Well, that’s right, price is not an issue.”

 “Okay, then one trillion.”

 “One trillion? Are you kidding me?” The colonel opened his eyes wide.

Their country's annual oil revenue is only tens of billions of dollars. Of course, this has made their country quite wealthy. Their per capita income ranks 13th in the world. This is also their proud capital.

 But asking them to spend a trillion dollars is nonsense.

"For our navy, this warship is a priceless treasure, and we think it is worth the price. If you want to buy it, just come up with one trillion."

"Huh, you don't count. Where is your Mr. Qin? When will Mr. Qin come back? Let me talk to him!" The colonel was angry: "I am your biggest customer, and he actually dares to ignore my existence!"

“Mr. Qin has other things to do and is on his way over.”

"I'll just wait for him for two hours. If he doesn't come back after two hours, I'll go back and you will lose a big customer!" The colonel muttered there.

Zhao Ling glanced at this guy and couldn't hold it back.

"Our existing orders have been scheduled for ten years. Therefore, if you want to order warships from us, you will have to wait until ten years to get the goods."

“That’s impossible! How can you be so insincere? We are your shipyard’s largest customer ever!”

"Really? What warships do you plan to order? How big will it be?" At this moment, a voice came from afar.

 Zhao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, Brother Tao was finally back! If you continue to treat this mentally ill person, I'm afraid you will become mentally ill yourself.

At this time, the people brought by the colonel were already standing outside the dock. Qin Tao passed over these people, strode over, glanced at the women, and the scene from "Ouchi Secret Agent Ling Ling Fa" came to his mind. There are three thousand beauties in the harem.
